Gonna set some 2011 poker goals in the coming weeks. But will probably focus more on investing, since I want to learn more about it Got 2 Swedish friends visiting me in Barcelona atm, and fazi is coming in 1.5 weeks to spend the weekend. Gonna be a lot of fun seeing him again, he visited me in my summer house last summer, and we did some fun stuff like taking a friends boat (500hp rubber boat) over to Copenhagen.

so i got pretty burnt out during december and came to vegas and stayed in hotels / playing cashgames and watching videos
improved my 6max game a ton and learned how to correctly 3b/4b etc, learned a lot about how to play vs those on depolarized ranges as well, which was a big leak in my game
1st of the month was yesterday, decision was to be made. Go for SNE through 6max where i may fail, or play MTT all year where my success rate is much higher (88k profit via OPR last year)
soooo, even tho i made $40/hr during december in cash, the 50k hand sample size was just too small for me to continue, a lack of confidence in cashgames above nl50 also kept from the conversion
so, gonna go hard MTT this year. I will be #1 on the yearly TLB if there aren't any major hinderances in life.
(last year took 2 months off and finished in top 25 i think, i didn't look all december)
Got pretty deep in the 55c 100k tonight, lost QKss vs JJ tho for a 40bb stack with 350 to go (450 ITM). Needed to accumulate some chips to winz
Still in the 5rebuy and closin the night off after that, 324/385 itm atm, lp luck plz -_-
getting a new apartment in either las vegas or a very nice ski/poker city in NY in the coming week or two
im bored, last blog i said i was gonna play cashgame, which was very shorttermed december thinking
just gonna keep ~12 mtts going at a time for now on instead of every mtt that looks good. this way i can have a little more time to do stuff in life, instead of averaging 10-15 hrs a day for a chance to profit
hey guys, happy New years, hope you all had an amazing time and have your minds right for 2011 =)
I managed to net 70-100k in MTT's this year, although staked for some, around 60kish profit there which isn't too bad. 2 wsops, 1 i busted early cuz i bought in really late and just meh, 2nd one i get very deep and got in 777 vs Q8hh on a 7TJhh flop (he riv straight), 400th of 1700 or so in this one (1500 nlhe 6max)
mtts are really wearing on me, they are so time consuming (spend most weeks playing 40-90 hours, sometimes more)r
I started watching DuecesCracked and Pokerstrategy.com videos to find out my leaks int he 6max arena, after many videos of nanononooko, balugawhale, ansky and others, i started hitting the 6max felt again
after doing so, i started playing 6max, so far i have 50,800 hands played after relearning 6max for 2738.66 (running about $150 below ev)
(my ptr was always terrible, but i've always been b/e / winner at 6max)
Going to play 40+ hrs of 6max weekly for now on, really enjoy the 40 an hour and can get up and do whatever i want whenever i want
with those 40 hrs of play, i'll gain my 41,500 FPP for 3 sunday Majors and invest 1-10% of my bankroll along with the 3 majors. I'll also MTT on random nights that I'm bored etc
Pretty good year all in all, learned a lot on the felt and off the felt, and looking forward to my first $150,000 year in 2011.
this was a really crazy year for me. feel like i really defined myself with regard to my profession. about to head to a party in my old neighborhood.
the end of the year was pretty devastating with regard to my personal life but i believe this was the best year profit wise at the tables of my entire life, albeit not by much. despite such a tough end of year on the personal level i'm feeling really optimistic going into 2012.
i'm not a fan of year end graphs or anything like that but you all can figure out how it went more or less anyways. bubbling the WPT Borg final table and sorta failing in WSOP was trying but I feel good about how I handled myself at all times in the live games.
i sincerely wish you all the best in 2011, best of health and may the wind be at your back.
The last 1,300 in winnings came from the last 24 hours lol
My goal in 2011 is to run better than I did in 2010 also to play more
1/2 NL HU(right now its 20%-.25/.5 75%-.50/1 5%-1/2) but on Ub its kinda scary since the initial bi is 200 BBs deep for any HU table
A time to show thanks, to me, its for meeting so many amazing people through the site, forming some great relationships friendship / business / both etc;
I've progressed through the site learning my leaks, being entertained by others as well as entertaining LP for giggles
I hope everyone has the best 25th! I'm gonna grind since I'm in a hotel room, hopefully tons of fish put money on during xmas (tons of ppl get like 200-500 and put it on for nl50 and 1-6 table, atleast i hope so :-))!!
I bought myself some new k-swiss kicks n a half of some kush for xmas =)
Hey guys, I spent the last few weeks playing around on NL25 6max on my spare time, and have moved up to nl50 6max. I'm doing very well, but still have some spots that are giving me a little trouble.
I'm going to be posting hands daily, if any NL25+ player(s) (winning or losing is fine from mindset perspective) can give input on most hands, I would be greatly appreciative, and swap MTT advice. Would also just be great.
I'll be posting most 50bb+ pots that I win or lose in daily after each session is over.
imo nothing wrong with asking for help from great players;
6max during week and MTT's on sunday with fpp buy-ins to atleast 2 215 buy-ins and a few hundo of my own in other mtts is how the games gonna be played by me for now on
(check my 6max on ptr nl50 and below before flaming me about playing cashgames please, i do realize it says -54k, but my 6max has always been profitable. I've also spent the last two years learning to play on a much higher level which has helped a lot, along with balugawhale, nananoko, ansky videos etc;
Yo i was spending some time with my dad and he had dvr'd this movie and wanted me to watch it together with him cause we both like... i dunno movies like that sort of.
wtf? is this just the most stupid movie ever??? was denzel washington seriously blind???? how the fuck can he shoot a bird out of the sky with a bow and arrow
is it supposed to be god guiding him through the whole entire movie? what's the fucking point then, why does god make him kill everyone in his way instead of just getting the bible to magically appear at the publication place
i feel like i missed something and am completely dumbfounded by the entire story, cause from my perspective it's terribly written and should have never been made into anything
setting up a mikogo stream, ship me 40 and ill send you the password, 20 more and i'll add you to the conference call on skype; you can watch all day 10-20 hrs (in a couple majors and many great midlimit mtts and 3 ftops etc) v good schedule to watch
doing this to hedge sunday variance
_This will last about 15 hours_
v gud investment for most imho and very cheap
40 without audio
60 with audio
have my reasons im doing this, one time thing, if u wanna learn cheap this is a great chance
private message me via lp if your interested,
thanks,
Ryan
Can get reputable posters to vouch for me. Have done trades with Checkmater PS for $500 -> BTC who can also vouch for me (although doesn't post here). Done other trades but not with poker players.
Also accepting GBP (£) and EUR (€) wire transfer at rates set by xe.com. My EUR bank here doesn't get used often so I'd need to find out first before we xfer.
